Dance is an integral part of our rich cultural landscape, with each region in India having its own unique style. Our set of wooden tops - called Nritya - is a respectful tribute to India's varied dance forms. Each top emulates a dancer in graceful movement, and this set of 2 wooden tops draws inspiration from 2 Indian dance forms - Ghoomar, from resplendent Rajasthan and Kathak, from magnificent Uttar Pradesh.

Benefits
1: Helps develop fine motor skills:
Spinning the tops using little fingers helps build dexterity and refines fine motor skills in children.
2: Encourages focus:
Getting a top to spin isn't the easiest, and definitely won't happen in the first go! It takes patience, focus and persistence from a child to get it to spin, and when it does - provides a sense of achievement.
3: Learn about various dance forms:
These tops are a great starting point to introduce children to the various dance and traditional art forms of India. Each of these tops emulate a dancer in motion, naturally piquing a child's interest in that particular form of dance.
4: Sparks curiosity:
The marvel of a spinning top will make a child curious, wanting to know how it balances, rotates and spins on its axis.
